Customer Reviews

My best guide for Pyrenees
I spent many of my holydays walking in the Pyrenees and I bought some very good french guidebooks. Thanks to them I already witnessed the astonishing beauty of different zones of those french (and spanish) mountains. I bought this Kev Reynolds guide for Pyrenees at the moment Amazon started to sell it and, like any other guide from this incredible author, I found it perfect. I wish I could meet him in a trek! Last summer, once again, I went there to hike some recomended routes and I can only tell you that you just need to find some time to read it and choose your treks; everything else is very well explained and detailed. It has a waterproof cover and it's perfect to put in the pocket... and there isn't any other guide with so many different route suggestions for Pyrenees (170!). Buy the suggested maps and, from 3 hours to multy-day routes, from west to east Pyrenees, from easy to really tough, there are sugestions for everybody's holydays. Thank you, Kev Reynolds!
